A N 1.4 EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant, is ad mitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and incipient con sumption.

The officer who pauses in the career of victory to place a guard over a antler's waggon for his private use is as bad as the soldier who halts to secure for himself the abandoned clothing or money of a flying foe, and they both sell the honour of the army and the blood of their country for a paltry price. He who follows his colours into the ranks of the enemy in pursuit of victory, disdaining the miserable passion for gathering booty, comes out of the battle with his honour untarnished, and, though barefooted and ragged, is far more to ho envied than he who is laden with rich spoils ga thered in the treil of his victorious comrades. There was some exceptions to the general misconduct on the afternoon of the 19th, but it would be d4ficult to specify them all. Let those %clic) did their duty be satisfied with the consciousness of having done it, and mourn that their efforts were paralysed by the misbehaviour of others. Let them be consoled, to soma (Arent, by the rtfl!ction that the enemy has nothing to boast of on his part. The ar!iilery and waggons were taken not. won by his valour. His.cimps were destroyed, his army terribly shattered and demoralised, his losses far heavier than ours, even in proportion to the relative strength of the armies, his plans materially im peded, and he wagon able to pursue by reason of his crippled condition. Soldiers of the Army of the Valley, I do not speak to you in anger ; I wish to speak in kindness, though in sorrow. My purpose is to show you the causes of our late misfortune, and point out the way to avoid similar ones itt future, and insure success to our arms. Success can only be secured by the enforcement and observance of the most rigid discipline. Officers, whatever their rank, must not only give orders, but set the example of obeying them ; and the men must follow that example. Fellow soldiers, I tun ready to lead you again in defence of our common cause, and I appeal to you by the remembrance of the glorious career in which you have formerly participated, by the woes of your bleeding country, the ruined homes and devastated fields you see around you, the cries of anguish which came up from the widows and orphans of your dead comrades, the horrors which await you and all that is yours in the future if your country is subjugated, and your hopes of freedom for yourselves and your posterity, to render a cheerful and willing obedience to th© rules of disci• pline, and to shoulder your muskets again with the determination never more to turn your backs upon the foe, but to do battle like men and soldiers until the last vestige of the footsteps of our barbarous and cruel enemies is erased from the soil they desee crate, and the independence of our country is firmly established. If you wi.l do this and rely upon the protecting care of a just and merciful lied, all will be well; you will again be what you once were, and I will be proud to lead you once more to battle. "J. A.

The Charge against Officials of the Unity Banking Company. IMPORTANT INVESTIGATION. Joseph Wakefield Terry and Thomas Burch were placed at the bar of the Mansion-house yesterday, in the custody of detective Sergeants Webb and Moss, before the Lord Mayor, to undergo further examination on a charge that they, being respectively the secretary and manager of a cer tain public company, called the Unity Joint-Stock Bank ing Association," unlawfully did make, circulate, publish, and concur in making, circulating, and publishing a cer tain written statement, viz., a balance sheet of the affairs of the said company up to June 30, 1862, they krowing the same to be false in divers material particulars, with intent thereby to deceive and defraud the members and share holders. Mr Lewis, jun., was for the prosecution; and Mr Sleigh appeared for Terry, and Mr Metcalfe appeared for Burch. The evidence given on the last occasion, it will be re• membered, was merely that contained in the information upon which the warrant was granted for the apprehension of the prisoners, and which went to show that in making the balance-sheet the defendants had introduced as assets certain sums, to a very large amount. which it was con tended on the part of the prosecution they were well aware were entirely lost to the bank and past recovery, and so made it appear that the affairs of the bank were in a prosper ous and solvent condition, they well knowing that at the time the bank had lost large sums of money, and was in a state of hopeless insolvency. _ _ Upon the information being read over the prisoners were remanded until yesterday, the only witness called being Mr Keitch, who was one of the committee of liquidators, and who produced the charter and articles under which the company was incorporated. Mr Keitch, who was called on the last occasion, said, in answer to Mr Metcalfe, the committee of liquidators con sisted of five gentlemen, with himself. Mr Hopgood was not on the committee. The whole of the directors and com mittee of liquidators were directing the prosecution. In answer to Mr. Lewis, he said the resolution waspassed to prosecute, and three of.the directors were present at the meeting, Mr Alderman Mechi, Mr Deputy Bower, and Mr George Eyre. He thought the directors refrained from voting. The resolution was passed 'by show of hands, and there were no hands shown against it. Mr. Howell, whose evidence was contained in the infor mation, was recalled, and said he was an accountant, and had had the management of the accounts of the Unity Bank on behalf of the liquidators. The books were temporarily placed in his hands in February in the present year, and permanently on March 16. Since that he had investigated the accounts for the purpose of ascertaining the assets. He produced the minute-books of the board and committee of the bank. He believed the two defendants were in the bank from the commencement. The handwriting of Mr. Terry appqrs on the books from the commencement. The first mention of Mr. Terry as manager to the bank was made in the minutes on Aug. 18, 1855. On that date there is an entry in his handwriting to that effect, which was signed " J. J. Mechi, Governor. Mr. Burch was appointed secretary on Jan. 25, 1861, and there was also a minute on that date to that effect. He produced the minute book of Aug. 18, 1857. The minutes taken on that day were in the handwriting of Mr Terry. A letter, signed G. L. Eyre, was contained in the minutes, in which the directors were invited by him to call a meeting of the proprietors in consequence of the bad state of the affairs of the bank. The letter was dated 1, John-street, Bedford-row, and addressed to Mr Sheriff Mechi, governor of the Unity Bank, signed G. L. Eyre, and was as follows : " My dear Sir,—Since our last coart day I have taken into consideration the position of the Unity Bank, and my own responsibilities and duties in connexion therewith. After what then passed, and the small .hare of support I received from the chair, 1 do not feel personally inclined, nor do I see the advantage that would arise from my again attending the court until nly duty may imperatively require me. I desire, however, to put on formal record my TiOWB as to our present position, and as to the course which ought to be pursued. You are aware that I have for some time past regarded the position of the bank with apprehension. That apprehension has been seriously increased by the recent revelations. The committee appointed at my instance has brought to light larger losses and a far more impe►f,ct system of management than we were any of ui previously aware of. The examination has also elicited facts connected with our losses which aro of a very serious character. I have ventured to submit to yourself and my colleagues what appears to me to lse our only remedy. But whilst I find my colleagues generally concurring with me as to the seri- ous character of past transactions, I do Lot find them pre pared to take the only step by which, as it seems to me, the property is likely to be saved from ruin. Under such cir cumstances, the grave question which I have to consider is, by what course of proceeding I can divest myself of any portion of the serious responsibility which devolves upon me, and how far I can best perform my duty, not only to those who, at my instance, have invested their money in the bank, but to all proprietors at large who have honoured me with their confidence as a director. There is no ordinary meeting •of proprietors until the month of January, 1858. The cir cumstances, however, are so serious that I think it ought to be deliberately considered whether we are to await that period or give the proprietors an opportunity of considering the position of the bank. In the balance sheet to Sept. 30, 1857, our losses were etatttd, to have been £l,lOO ; according to your statement ut the court in July, they are now upwards of £lO,OOO, showing a less of nearly £9,000 in three months. The customers' deposits in the bank do not increase—at the present time they would be lees than they were six months since, and had not several thousand pounds been paid in in respect of the call of the Unity Fire Company. Our paid. up capital (£150,000) has been so dealt with that we have no more than £ls,ooo—or one-tenth of the whole—availa ble at the present time for banking purposes. Our shares of the value of £56 each are at the present time not saleable in the share market. Without reference to the many other grave and startling facts which are known to us, it ap pears to me that the foregoing considerations alone are suffi cient to indicate the propriety of calling our proprietors together. I accordingly request that you will have the kind ness to submit this communication to the Court, and take its deliberate opinion as to the propriety of calling a special meeting of the proprietors to consider the position of the bank. In the result of any such meeting, I shall be pre pared to state unreservedly my view of the present position of the property, and at the same time to resign my seat as a director. In the contrary event, I shall at any rate feel that I have done my duty by putting on record my protest against the present system of management, and my opinion as to tue course which ought to bo taken in justice to the proprietors." Upon the reading of the above letter the following rm., bition was passed:—" That this Court regrets that any delay should have taken place in answering Mr Eyre's letter, but circumstances have rendered that delaynecessary in order fully and hatistactorily to reply to his communica tion. It has new to inform Mr Eyre that the Court has received and accepted Mr Chambers' assignation on such terms as it trusts will be for the benefit of the bank and be satisfactory to the proprietors. The Court has made arrange ments for the present management of the bank with Mr Terry. Uader these circumstances the Court does not think it necessary to adopt Mr Eyre's suggestion of calling the proprietors together before the ordinary time for holding ha half-yearly meeting." _ By Mr Sleigh—The resolution was confirmed by J. J. Mechi on Aug. 25, 1857. Witness continued—The directors did not call together the shareholders after receiving that letter, but appointed Mr Terry as manager. (The minute to that effect was read.) On Nov. 3, 1857, a committee of investigation was formed to investigate the affairs of the bank, but he could not find the report of that committee. He produced the board minute bo , k and read the minutes of the board meeting, held Nov. 28, 1857, present*Messrs Mechi, Lloyd, Hayward, Bower, Eyre, &c., which stated that the report of the committee of investigation having been read, it was resolved " That the report of the committee appointed to investigate the affairs having been considered, the directors desire to place before the gentlemen forming that committee the following consi• deration. With respect to the first clause of the report, they have desired the solicitor to see that the bank be forthwith registered under the Joint-Stock Companies Act, 1857. With regard to the second clause, in which the committee state that they have carefully investigated the accounts laid before them, and discover the startling fact that about £90,000 has been lost in bad debts, preliminary expenses, and bank premises, leaving about £60,000 available for business purposes, the directors would request the commit tee to eons:der whether it is a fact that all that £90,000 has been lost, when this sum includes all the investments of the company, and whether it would not be better in a public and official document, that may be called for at a public meeting, to state accurately the facts as they are, viz., extreme esti mated loss on bills £30,000, loss on bank premises, Pimlico, Aldgate,Watford, and St Albans, £2,778 16s ; less esti mated amount to be realised on the same, £721 168 9d, leaving a loss of £2,056 193 4d; preliminary expenses, £28,882 15s 5d ; investments in bank premises £24,057 4s 4d. The directors, therefore, request the committee to revise the report in this respect; but with respect to the attendance of directors at the bank, this has been carried out, and the other recommendations of the committee shall be carried out so far as practicable. Resolved,—That a copy of the above reso lution be sent to It. A, Ewing, Esq., chairman of the com mittee." This resolution was confirmed December 4, 1857, by J. J. Mechi. In answer to Mr Metcalfe, Mr Howell said the entries of these minutes were in the prisoner Terry's handwriting. In May, 1858, a call of £5 on each share was made, which appeared in the minutes of a meeting on the 12th March, the entry of which was in the defendant Burch's handwriting. In answer to Mr Metcalfe, Witness said there were 3,000 shares out at that time. Resexamined—The call of £5 a-share would realise •••••• £15,000; £5O per share had been previously paid up. They were £lOO shares, and unlimited liability. There was another call of £5 a share made in December, 1858, and there was a minute of a resolution made to that effect on the Ist October, 1858. Mr Bower was in the chair at that time, and the entry was in the handwriting of Mr Burch. He, produced the minute books of all the meetings, and balance sheets down to Dec, 1860, and all the balance sheets down to the one of December, 1860, show prominently the amount of the past due bills. Ila produced the balance sheet for December, 1857. In it there appeared an entry of £40,559 as past due bills, and there was a minute to the effect that £ll,OOO of that sum would probably be recovered, and no portion of it had been written off until it could be ascertained what amount would be realised as the affairs of the creditors were under investigation. Mr Sleigh—Am I to understand that it appeared promi nently in the balanoe sheet as £40,559 past due bills not written off ? Witness said it did. Re-examined—Besides the words "past due bills," there appeared " bills discounted and loans to customers." Mr Lewis said up to that time the balance sheet was cor rect, but it was after that date the charge appeared against the prisoners. Witness continued—ln the balance sheet of June, 1858, which he produced, the amount of past due bills was shown aseparate item under the head of customers of £133,579, and nha 7 , billst b 7 good and bad, are properly re presented. In the ba lan ce sheet of 31st December, 1858, the past due bills, bil ls disco unted, and loans to customers are treated as separa te items. In the balance sheet of 30th i s 3 7 a 0 I dis c oun t eda and nc e also sheet and showed the l oansassets, a t 1861, sheet showed a loss of Juno the items are s imilarl y tr eated, and are so down to D e c e mber 30, 1860. Th e ba lance sheet down to December 30, 1860, was in B urch's hand writing, and was confirmed a at which Mr Alderman Mth a general £38,179, which was written off the capital at that meet ing, and it was reso lved that a sum of £5OO should be e ci presided. voted to the directors for their services. The £38,179 is substituted for the £179,105, th e amount o f the paid up capital, making it a pp ear as £ 1 41,015; and in all meti T ng hat in balance subsequent balance-sheets the paid-up capital appears as £141,015, and the loss of £38,000 never appears in any sub sequent balance-sheet. In the balance-sheet up to Dec., 1861, the preliminary expenses were put down as £32,648, and were entered in the general ledger, which he produced, as preliminary expenses, which appeared to be partly com posed of items paid f)r salaries after the opening of the bank, amounting to £1,083. The last date of salary paid, included in that amount, was March 14, 1857, There were other items, consisting of salaries amounting to £7,137. The bank opened on the 6th of May, 1856, and the amount ex pended up to that time was £2,632, which could be fairly entered as preliminary expenses. A total of £1,316 was passed to the preliminary expenses, which included the £1,083 for salaries. The transfer of these sums to the pre liminary expenses would tend to show a large profit. There was an item under the bead of stationary, of £3,342 entered in the column headed current expenses, whioh was charged, after deducting £6OO, to the preliminary expenses, and brought out in a balance in the column under the head of preliminary expenses. The account for stationary up to the opening of the bank appeared to be £997, and the amount of £2,363, which was spent for stationary after the opening of the bank was charged in the preliminary expenses. The entries were all in Terry's writing. Th e last item was in Oct., 1857. There also appeared in the ledger the rent ac• count, amounting to £2,365 for rent paid after the opening of the bank, the last item being on the 30th of April, 1857, and which was also charged to the preliminary expenses There was a suet of £2,200 entered as loss on branches, which was also passed to the preliminary expenses; and a sum of £1,870 as commission on the sale of shares, and £B4B for a dinner at the opening of the bank, were also charged to the preliminary expenses. Mr Lewis—The dinner was opened with prayer. (A. laugh.) Mr Metcalfe—There was nothing unusual in that. Mr Sleigh—lt is a custom in this country, and I hope there will never be a dinner without prayer. Witness—There is a payment of £6,000 to Mr Baylis, who was the managing director of the bank, and receivol a salary of £l,OOO a year; and there are three entries in the books of £I,COO each paid to him subsequent to the £6,000, snd the whole of that £9,000 is charged in the preliminary expenses. By Mr Sleigh—There was nothing to show whether Mr Terry was only a clerk or not at the time these entries were made. Examination continued—The entries with respect to Mr Baylis were also in Mr Terry's handwriting. The three payments of £l,OOO each were made in 1857, 1858, and 1839. There were other sums amounting to £519, and also directors' fees amounting to £1,057, charged in the prelimi nary expenses. The balance sheet of June, 1862, appeared in the minute book under the date of Sept. 16, 1862, and was confirmed on Oct. 3, 1862. The balance sheet was read, and was as follows : BALANCE SHEET OF THE UNITY JOINT-STOCK MUTUAL BANKING ASSOCIATION, JUNE 30, 1862, DR. To capital account £141,015 0 6 To amount due on current and other accounts 159,392 6 1 To balance of interest after payment of interest to cus• touters £3,93716 0 To balance of _ profit and loss as per last re port .. £4,079 15 6 Less dividend of 12e6c1 per share paid last half-year 1,824 7 6 2,555 8 0 6,193 4 0 £306,600 10 6 CL By preliminary expenses By investments in bank premises, including Brighton freeholds .... 24,590 3 1 By current expenses from Dec. 31, 1861, to June 30, 1862 By bills discounted, loans to customers 207,668 14 10 By cash in hand 38,715 0 1 £306,600 10 6 PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT FOR THE HALF - YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 1862. To current expenses from 31st December, 1861, to 30th June, 1862, brought down £2,977 17 0 To balance 3,215 7 0 £6,193 4 0 By balance of interest account after payment of interest on customers' balances — £3,937 16 0 By balance of profit and loss account, brought down £6,193 4 0 The sheet was signed by Mr Gould and Mr Hopwood, as auditors, with a memorandum, in which they stated that they had compared the items with the books and found the same to be correct. That balance sheet was in the minutes in Burch's handwriting, In the item on the credit side £307,668, 14s 10d, the sum of £38,179 was not included. It was written off the capital. The bank had customers named Olivier and Co., and he produced their bills of exchange, amounting to £419, which were dishonoured. He produced the book in which the past due bills were written in defen dant Burch's writing, and he there found written against Messrs Olivier's bills, is pencil the word " forgery," in the prisoner Terry's writing. There was nothing to show at what date the word, which was in pencil. was written. On the back of one of the bills, in Terry's handwriting, is written, "The first instalment of 2s in the pound paid, 11th May, '61." There was no entry of this dividend in the past due bill book ; but Olivier'a debt was in 1862 carried as £419 into the item of £207,000 as bills discounted and loans to cus tomers, In the committee minute book there was under date Feb. 19, 1861, a minute to the effect that Olivier hay.. ing been guilty of forgery with respect to certain bills, steps should bo taken to have him apprehended. That sum was carried into the assets as bills discounted. The bank had customers named Harrison and Co., and he produced their bills, 22 in number, amounting to ,L',670. They were dated principally in the year 1860. They appeared to have been exhibited in the Court of Bankruptcy in June, 1861, and after that a dividend was deducted from them leaving an amount of £1,861, which was carried into the good assets. Messrs. Cowell and Brooks were customers of the bank, and in 18.59 they were indebted to the bank in the sum of £3,645. In 1860 £2,011 was written off as lost, which left a balance of £1,603. The entry appeared to be in Terry's writing. In 1859 it appeared that security of Cowell and Brooks was sold, realising £1,376 Os 20 ; and in February, 1861, a dividend of 51d was received, which left a balance of £l4B 17s, and that balance tanned part of the sum entered in the balance-sheet as good assets of the bank in 1862. A Mr Lowenthall was also a customer of the bank, end in June, 1832, he owed the bank £1,635, principally upon bills drawn by Lowenthall upon Ironsides. In 1860 Iron sides was a debtor to the bank in the sum of £735, which was written off as wholly lost. In June, 1862, Lowen thall's bills were renewed, Ironsides' bills being taken by way of renewal, Ironsides being at that time bankrupt. Ironsides' bills were entered in the bill diary book of the bank, September 1892. The figures were written on an erasure, and the total, £1,635, was in the prisoner Terry's handwriting. At this stage Mr Lewis proposed to adjourn the ease, re marking that there was a number of similar accounts to go through, and in that way he would show that £lOO,OOO bad assets had been treated as good. Mr Sleigh and Mr Metcalfe addressed his lordship with a view to induce hint to admit the prisoners to bail, but his lordship deolined to take upon himself the responsibility, and the prisoners were again remanded.

The following is an extract from a letter from a Confederate prisoner of war, dated Point Lookout, Maryland, Prisoner of War C imp, Oct. 10 : " This letter will not be sent through the regular channel of United States officials, but will go by private hand to Baltimore and be mailed there, I shall thus be able to write you more freely. There are 7,000 of our prisoners at this point. Most of them having been in prison 12 months have suf fered many indignities, and been subject to the most galling ordeal of sacrifice and hardship, which none but themselves can realise. The Yankees, with characteristic malignity, use the most cowardly means and inducements to cause our men to desert that country which they love so well. Our rations are curtailed, our blankets taken from us, no wood furnished ; our men are shot down in cold blood. Then comes the comedy. The officials, in the livery of the United States Govern ment, with faces radiant with smiles, ride through our prisons. The oath of allegiance to the United States is offered us, and our men are entreated to leave the so-called Confederacy,' and fight under the ' stars and stripes,' and be relieved from the horrors and sufferings of a prison life. These are only a few of the means employed. Everything that Yankee ingenuity and Black Republican malice can suggest is used to accomplish this pur pose, Bat, thank God! these Southern patriots, though tortured and persecuted by the representa tives of the best Government the world ever saw,' still remain true and faithful to the cause which they have espoused; they reject with indignation and contempt the offers of our magnanimous Yankee philanthropists, and anitiouily, hopefully look for ward to the future, when they shall once more, with musket in hand, be under the folds of that banner which on more than a hundred fields has waved triumphantly in the face of the United States army. Our confidence in the final success of our arms has not been lessened by the ordeal through which he have pasted. True, a cloud hangs over us now, but we still feel hopeful and sanguine of ultimate success in the future. With such men as Davie, Lee, Beauregard, and a host of others, we cannot be conquered, but we will fight on till our indepence is gained, or until the Southern people are ' numbered with the things that were.' fhe Southern spirit is invincible, it will surmount all obstacles, and overcome all hardships, and endure all privations .to secure our people a separate nationality, distinct from this modern mobocracy established at Washington. We are told every day by our gaolers that Richmond has fallen, that our armies are beaten and demo ralised, that our people are discont ented and starving, that our troops are deserting, and that we are in the last ditch Eco. Of course such rumours and reports have no other Effect upon us than to make U 3 more determined, i► ever the opportunity offers, to revenge these base calumnies and insulting taunts. The worst feature of our imprisonment the being guarded by ' negro soldiers'—our own slaves stolen from us by our magnanimous Northern brethren ; but there is no alternative, we must re. main and suffer for conscience and for country's sake until our Government can effect an exchange. These privations, however, are only for a time. The Southern people are only suffering temporary hard ships and sacrifices; for I am forced to believe that a glorious future is in store for the Confederate States, and that after safely passing through this terrible ordeal of war we as a people and a separate nation shall be better able to enjoy that independ ence for which we have suffered and battled, and which we are determined to extort from our bitter enemies. No doubt I weary you with this lengthy history of the sufferings of myself and comrades at the hands of the United States officers; but I feel certain that I am writing to one who deeply sym pathises with our people, and who has done all in his power to ameliorate and lessen the sufferings of myself during a long imprisonment here. My health is still quite good, and my spirits as buoyant as could be expected under the circumstances." General Early and his Army, The New York papers of the 29th ult. contain the following address by Gen. Early to his troops : " Ileadquarters,Valley District, Oat. 22,1864. " Soldiers of the Army of the Valley,—l had hoped to congratulate you on the splendid victory won by you on the morning of the 19th at Bell grove, Cedar-creek, when you surprised and routed two corps of Sheridan's army, and drove back seve ral miles the remaining corps, capturing 18 pieces of artillery, 1,500 prisoners, a number of colours, a large quantity of small arms, and many waggons and ambulances, with the entire camps of the two routed corps ; but I have the mortification of an.. nouncing to you that by your subsequent miscon duct all the benefits of that victory were lost, and a serious disaster incurred. Had you remained steadfast to your duty and your colours, the vice tory would have been one of the most brilliant and decisive of the war ; you would have gloriously re trieved the reverses of Winchester and Fisher's Hill, and entitled yourselves to the admiration and gratitude of your country. But many of you, in• eluding some commissioned officers, yielding to a disgraceful propensity for plunder, deserted your colours to appropriate to yourselves the abandoned property of the enemy, and subsequently those who had previously remained at their posts, seeing their ranks thinned by the absence of the plunderers, when the enemy, late in the afternoon, with his shattered columns made but a feeble effort to re trieve the fortunes of the day, yielded to a need less panic and fled the field in confusion, thereby converting a splendid victory into a disaster. Had any respectable number of you listened to the ap. peals made to you and made a stand, even at the last moment, the disaster would have been averted, and the substantial fruits of victory secured ; but under the insane dread of being flanked, and a panic-stricken terror of the enemy's cavalry, you would listen to no appeal, threat, or order, and allowed a small body of cavalry to penetrate to our train and carry off a number of pieces of artillery and waggons which your disorder left unprotected. You have thus obscured that glorious name won in conjunction with the gallant men of p th ro e u a d r ly myof Northern Virginia, who still remain de fiant in the trenches around Richmond and Peters burg. Before you can again claim them as com rades you will have to erase from your escocheons the blemishes which now obscure them ; and this 'you can do if you will but be true to your former reputation, your country, and your homes. You who have fought at Manassas, Rich mond, Sharpsburg, Fredericksburg, Chancellors. ville, Gettysburg, and from the Wilderness to the banks of James river, and especially you who were with the immortal Jackson in all his triumphs, are capable of better things. Arouse yourselves, then, to a sense of your manhood and appreciation of the sacred cause to which you are engaged. Yield to the mandates of discipline; resolve to stand by your colours in future at all hazards, and you can yet retrieve your reputation and strike effective blows for your country and its cause. Let every man spurn from him the vile plunder gathered on The Late Battle in Japan. The Scotsman publishes the following plssages 'rota a private letter by an officer engaged in the .ate affair at the Straits of Simonosaki : H.M.S. Conqueror, Straits of Simonosaki, Saturday, Sept. 10, 1864. You will see by the heading that we have proceeded to the Inland Sea—we, that is, the French, Dutch, and one American vessel, and last, not least, the English. Every one thought that the idea of giving Prince Nagato the three months he had asked fo: had been agreed to; but on Saturday, three weeks ago, news came on board the admi ral's ship from the Minister that, in consequence of intelli gence received fromYeddo, he must start at once and force the Straits. Accordingly, wo embarked on Sunday, and sailed the following morning. Captain de Courcy, Norcock, and myself, with one company, embarked ou board the Leopard, a paddler, and very comfortable she is. We got down here this day week, and our company was tranahrred to the Argus, a smaller paddler. The following day (Mon day last) the allied fleets engaged the forts, dding them a considerable amount of injury without• any loss of a serious nature to ourselves, except on board the Tartar, which lost scene men. Tuesday, G'h September.—E,rly in the morning all the marines of the fleet and the battalion met en board the Argus to be landed. There were not enough of captains to lead the companies, so I was given command of a company composed of different ships' marines, being the senior subaltern not otherwise engaged. We landed about eight in the morning, as also did a naval brigade, consisting entirely of blue jackets. Col. Suther had command of the whole. Our battalion of ships' marines, under Col. Adair, went along the beach to a fort which ships kept firing on, and which had vex) , heavy guns. We took it almost with out resistance, dismounted the guns, blew up the magazine s and destroyed its buildings 'We were assisted by the French and Dutch; and ships' boats, armed with guns in their bows, crept along the shore fo assist us. After resting, we procoeded a long distance along the beech till we came to the outskirts of the town of Simonosaki, the principal street of which faces to the sea. Along the street we went in column, having a party destroying and gutting the houses in case of being fired on from them. We had not gone far when the enemy appeared—as quickly disappearing again before a well-directed volley of musketry and case-shot from the field-piece in the boats. We suppose our fire then was very deadly, but had no time to find out, as the houses in our rear were blazing, and our retreat would have been cut off if we had not retreated at the top of our speed. The day was then declining; and we returned and were waiting abreAst of our ships for boats to take us on board, and eating our dinners most contentedly, when we heard tremendous firing of every kind up the ravine at the foot of which we were resting. Soon we got a message to say that there was a troublesome fort to be silenced, and they wanted more men. Three companies, of which mine was one, were sent up to assist. The fort was being ap proached by the naval brigade on the left side of the ravine, so we went up on the right aide, under a not very heavy fire from them. We had advanced a considerable distance up this ravine when we lost sight of the other side from the nature of the ground; and when next we got into more open country we saw that the naval brigade were on the point of entering the fort at the further end of it from us. and the Japanese were rushing out at the other end with a field-piece, with the object of planting it in some higher part commanding the fort. We dashed forward to intercept them. The road on which we were and the read on which they were apparently converged, and we got within 80 yards of them. I fired two shots, still cunning, with my long service revolver, keeping my Dean and Adams for close work, when at that moment we came to a turn of the road which showed us where they were dragging the gun to. At the distance of 120 yards, as near as I could guess, there was a formidable stockade, between which and ourselves there was no cover, and they gave us a tremendous volley of it from musketry only. Several men dropped killed or wounded. I shouted to my company to get up the wooded bank to the right and keep under cover, and gradually work up so as to get above the stockade, and fire down into it. I was preparing to accompany them when I saw two mon wounded lying within two paces in front of me, who were vainly trying to mewl out of the fire, which was still well kept up by the Japanese; and I ordered four men to carry them to the rear. I had great difficulty in making myself heard, and in these few seconds' delay I got shot myself. I was taken to the rear, and luckily met Angus Robertson, assistant-surgeon, who was hurrying up with stretchers, &o. Directly he saw the two holes he said ' It's all right, the bullet's gone clean through, an d by the direction, I don't think it has touched the bone.' This proved to be given the i n ' i' correct. Captain de Courey was then hit, as was al so ricochet,Captain A w l h e i z e a h nder, r was struck by a , stunned him, and knocked hi m d own th e R.N., and Co l. Ad air bank. They then fired a field-piece down the ravine, but l uc k i ly pointed it too high. Sept. —The fighting is all over. P r i nce N a g a to h as .:nin, but considers he is very h ar dly t rea t e d, as he sa y s 15 coon encouraged him to fi g ht a gainst us, promi s i ng b support which he never gave. The Tycoon told us the contrary : that he had persuaded Nagato to keep his treaty with us, but he would not. The Tycoon is jealous of his power, and wanted to see him beaten. Another instance of the deceitful policy of the Japanese is most extraordinary. On the southern side of the Straits is the property of another prince who is friendly to foreign Powers. Ile, when he saw the bombardment commence, took fright that Nagato should afterwards make war on him for not assisting him, and sent a message to the admiral begging him to allow him to fire blank cartridge, to make it appear he was firing at us from his forts. Of course, his request was refused. When they do such things among themselves they naturally will be more deed fal to foreigners when there is anything to gain by it, and we never shall be able to understand the pet ple till more Europeans have thoroughly mastered the lan guage and mixed with all ranks of the people. LADVERTISEMENTJ —Holloway's Ointment and Pills,— Old Sores, Wounds, and Ulcers.-1t is surpiising how quickly any sore, ulcer, or wound drains away the body's strength, and unfits it for the duties of life ; but it is no less wonderful to watch how these trop'cal afflictions improve on the application of Holloway's healing Ointment. It has achieved the surest and most glorious triumphs over bad legs, foul ulcerations, and knotted veins which had con founded the faculty and well nigh worn out their victims. It creates sound flesh, and therefore makes its cure coma plete. When this Ointment is properly applied, and assisted by appropriate doses of the Pills, the pain, inflam■ mation, and other morbid manifestations soon disappear from the afflicted part, and health and strength return.
